Don't own anything.
4 hours left, I've been writing all day, I really am nervous!
"Say hello to the newest member of the rubber gun squad. I've been officially removed from active duty."
"How do they know we're seeing each other Don?"
"Who?"
"Internal Affairs. I thought we were trying to keep this thing quiet. I didn't say anything to anyone and that only leaves you."
"People talk, they make assumptions."
"Because of those assumptions, now my word doesn't mean squat with IA. I mean, who could have told them?"
"Look Jess, I'm sorry. But I've got bigger things to worry about right now than squad room gossip."
"Right."
The quiet tone of her voice and her sad smile before she walked away made Flack feel horrible, but he still didn't go to apologize, choosing to go with Mac for a beer.
Nice boyfriend he was, but right now, that didn't matter, he just wanted to forget the day.
Mac watched as Flack stared at the full beer in front of him, "Are you going to drink that Don?"
"I was an ass."
"To Jess?"
Flack nodded, "She came up to my desk after the IA interview, they knew about us. She was worried about our relationship being out in the open. I brushed her off, but she was just trying to tell me that her word didn't mean anything with IA."
"Then why are you here, and not with her apologizing?"
He shrugged, "I don't know."
Mac smiled, "Jess is a good woman, it's gonna take a lot more than one brush off to scare her away. She really cares about you."
Flack stood up, "I got to go, I think my girl needs a sorry."
Mac grinned, "Don't let her hear you call her that, I'll pay, you go."
Flack waved and headed to Jess's place.
Jess looked at Flack standing in her doorway, "What do you want?"
"I'm sorry."
She raised her eyebrows, "If that's the best you can do..."
Flack brushed past her so he was inside, "No Jess. I am so sorry about brushing you off, but I had things on my mind. It's not an excuse, and it wasn't fair to take it out on you. You mean so much to me, I can't loose you. I love you Jess."
She stared at him, "You what?"
He smiled, "Was that a better apology?"
She smiled back, "Ya, it was. But I also owe you an apology. I assumed you had told something and I was being a whiny girlfriend, I should have left you alone, you had other things you needed to do. I love you too Don."
He pulled her into his arms and gave her a kiss, "Good. Now do you think we could move on to the physical parts?"
Jess grinned, "Why don't you come into the bedroom and find out?"
Flack picked her up and proceeded to go do just that.
Love always, Heavenly...
P.S. I hope I got the first part right... If I didn't please let me know!
